depends on the country you live in and the correct pronunciation in your regional flavour of English.

Here's a little background: I'm of Taiwanese-descent, but grew up in the San Francisco Bay Area. I have no UK background, so I have no idea why I pronounce the UK version. Does anyone know the more common pronunciation for the "regional flavour" of San Francisco?

I believe the the difference between the two pronunciations nyooz and nooz is called yod-dropping. There is some debate here about whether this habit is American or a regional pronunciation in America; so far as I know (as a native speaker), it is always nyooz in British English.

Some Americans do it, some don't, and some drop some but not all of the droppable yods, depending on the initial consonant cluster. I don't know the geographical distribution of yod-dropping, though. If you're talking about whether it's present in the mythical accent called General American,Wikipedia says it is, and I can't argue with that.

I'm not a native English speaker but I learnt different accents of English. The word news is pronounced as "nooz" in America. The British pronounce it as "nyooz" and kif you see the word series of the letter in this way you'll find something like this there some words below you should observe
